So much begins with dressing better.
When you dress better, you feel better. Feel better, and you're empowered to become better.

For years, I'd been working in finance wearing so-called tailored suits to work. Surrounded by men in loose fitting, frumpy suits, I took it as a fact of life that this was the only way to dress for work. But when I got my first suit custom made for me, everything changed.
The first change was my outlook. I hadn't ever experienced pride of ownership in my clothes before. Having something cut just for me, built on decisions I made about how I wanted it to look, made this feel like the only thing in my closet that was truly mine.
So when I put it on and looked at myself in the mirror, I got an instant boost in confidence and a big ole grin on my face. The fabric was dark, solid and conservative, the kind of color most of my colleagues wore, but I looked 10 times better. It was amazing to see what a difference a flawless fit could make.
From there, my growing hobby began to look more and more like a calling. We realized that if more people saw the improvements to their style a flawless fit can deliver and learned a bit about the outfit-building along the way, they'd have the same empowering experience I had. That was the beginning of the custom clothing company we started. We set out to change the way men get their clothes.
We're getting there one custom suit at a time. With each order, a new guy gets to see how a small change can make such a big difference. And another virtuous cycle of smiles begin.
